A few late-afternoon distractions have been discovered:

  • By way of and Not Always Right: May Contain Scenes of Gratuitous Bowie
  • Erfworld
  • From the “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot” file: Woman rubs chili pepper seeds in her eyes after setting new world record
    I can’t just make her “Human of the Day.” It would be… too much of an understatement.  So, we’ll make her “Hardcore Human of the Day.”  Yeah, that’ll work.
  • Obama eases curbs on Cuba travel
  • Ariana Page Russell: The Human Etch-A-Sketch
  • We are in the midst of a server room upgrade. Along with this, we’re getting some new cabinets for servers. Julie fielded a call this morning from the shipping company to schedule delivery of the cabinets. She set us up for Thursday delivery.  Ten minutes ago, a driver from the company showed up… with the racks in his truck. We couldn’t take delivery for a couple of reasons
    1. The truck had no liftgate.
    2. We have no forklift.
    3. Our building has no loading dock.  (FAIL!)
    4. We weren’t expecting them until… um… Thursday maybe?!

    So, Julie sent the driver packing. The cabinets will be delivered… on Thursday, as agreed upon… in a truck with a liftgate.

Namaste.
